TEE Secretary of the Treasury has had published all over the country that Sl2. 100000 was paid out in July for pen sions. In feet, not a dollar was dis bursed or paid out of the treasury. all the pension agents m the country. at the close of the fiscal year, are required to turn over whatever money they have on hand.

THE CIenegs cut oD me Southern Pa ,itic is laying out for itself an uneuvis- ble reputation. Almost within the past three months two successful rObberies Of the express have been committed. The first time the robbers got away with their poodle scot free, although a reward of s100O0 wss offered for their capture. This possibly emboldened them for last nights work which they successfully ac oomplished. It is however, extremely doubtful if the perpetrators can as sue cessfully elude pursuit as before.

At most the officers were but six hours be- hind aud with good trsileTs they are apt to run their quarry down. At the first hold up the robbers were burdeDed by the weight of S5OO0 Mexican silver. this time that coin was either not touched or discarded early ID their flight. Both robberies are believed to have been committed by the same parties as their tactics in each instance, were pretty much the same.

THERE are 27,OOO British subjects, mostly Englishmen. in Massachusetts. who find permanent employment and liviaE wages m the various manufsctur- ing industries of that state, But sl- though living and working in sn Amer jean state, with DO purpose of re- turning to their native country, they have remained British subjects. During the jubilee celebration they entered heartily into its spirit and thereby caused little expression of feeling on the part of the Ameriosn-born populs- lation. An objection was made to the use Of Fsneuil Hall for the purpose of expressing loyalty to the Queen, and iD other ways the British realized that too much enthusiasm in that direction would not be considered in good taste. Itis said now thst 6000 of these British sub jeots have taken the hint and declared their intention to become American eiti- seas.-s. F. Call

ficient degradation of the moral sense to
make criminals. To this extent can
Government profitably interfere in
social question. 1t may be contended
that Government is not a philanthropic
institution, and hence it is without its
scope to consider means to elevate
the shiftless and unfortunate. 1t
may also be argued that Government
cannot consistently interfere even
with the degradation of people with
out assuming right to regulate all their
affairs. But, outside of all theoretical
objections, no one will deny the right
and duty of Government to look out for
itself. Self-preservation is a law that
applies to governments as well as to in
dividuals Any factors that threaten
the stability of organized society threaten
at the very same time the very existence
of governments. Hence, when scientific
and hygienic laws show that certain en-
vironments degrade and degenerate men,
they must be prevented, although ap-
pearing to interfere with the liberty of
the subject. No legal shibboleth must
be allowed TO stand in the way of such
action.
In the interest OF the majority govern
ment must be preserved, and the most
efficient method of such preservation is
the defense of the minority against its
own viciousness.

ing spell. These is no collapes in prices,
and none is threatened. The sale figures
are still the same. In view
of this significant fact the pres
ent lull carries with it a most
flattering explanation. More rail-
roads are coming. The eastern capital
lists who have invested SO largely and
confidently IN Salt Lake real estate, are
not slow to recognize the approach of the
developingrails. Nay, the early coming OF
more railroads was probably one of the
most powerful reasons for eastern capital
seeking Salt Lake property. Capital is
many-eyed, and it is scarcely possible
that the near future of Salt Lake City as
a great rairoad center escaped its Argus
glance. Here then we have the situation
in nutshell. Eastern capital has sought
Salt Lake. Has made its preliminary
and far-sighted purchases, and now with
all the advantages of the situation in its
grasp awaits the coming of the new rail-
roads. With the advent of the Midland,
or rather the Atchison and Topeka, will
come the Central Pacific. With the
Central Pacific will come the Union Pa
cific. Salt Lake will be the Railway
center of the West, and the real estate
boom now resting in certain confidence
on its oars, will arise in strength full
fiedged, and the promise of the past two
months of preparatory activity will be
gloriously redeemed

THE REAL ESTATE SITUATION.

The fact that Salt Lake real estate is
not displaying its late phenomenal activ-
ity is no cause for alarm. In fact the
situation is at the present writing more
replete with encouragement than ever be-
fore. The lull is but the prelude to the
realization of the most sanguine expecta-
tions of Salt Lakes citizens. During the
past two months an immense amount of
Salt Lake real estate has changed hands,
with the very satisfactory result of the
investment Of large amount of Eastern
capital in city property. This capital has
been invested by shrewd and expert
enced financiers, whose operations al
ways hold in view a definite purpose.
These gentlemen were, and still are on the
ground in person. Their purchases were
strictly business purchases. These pur-
chases would never have been made had
not the shrewd purchasers fully recog-
nized the great opportunities of which
they took such prompt and businesslike
advantage. The real estate boom of the
past two months has been the needed
initial step. 1t is the broad and deep laid
foundation stone upon which is to be
erected the future prosperity of Salt Lake
City, and Utah Territory. We have felt
the vlvifying touch of Eastern capital.
That capital is now located permanently
mere 1t is factor in Salt Lakes present.
and will give its mighty aid to Salt Lakes
future. A significant feature Of the real
estate situation OF to-day is the fact that
though quiet, the boom is perfectly in
! tact 1t is, in fact, bnt enjoying breath

BAYARD'S PROPOSALS.

Secretary Bayard has made public his
memorandum of proposals for treaty on
the subject of the fisheries, submitted by
him, in November last, to the British
Government. 1t provides that a mixed
commission shall be appointed. The
proposals define the position of the Ad-
ministration in the fishery dispute, the
rights it has contended for in behalf OF
our fishermen, and still contends for, in
the teeth OF the treaty of 1878, which ex-
pressly declares that they 'shall be per-
mitted TO enter such bays and harbors.
for the purpose of shelter, repairing
damages, OF purchasing wood and OBJ
tanning water, and for no other purpose
whatsoever. As yet Secretary Bayard
has received no reply to his pro-
posals, but there is good reason to
believe they will be favorably consid-
cred by Great Britain. 1t is of the first
Importance to England to maintain
friendly relations with the United States.
AS the London Times coolly remarks,
England has no more interest in the
matter" "The English view," says the
Times, "has been that Canada is proba-
bly, in the right, but that it would be
wiser for her not to insist on the full
rights which, as somewhat partial judges,
VS. consider to be hers We have made
such large concessions before now that
we may venture to continue them without
fear of being misinterpreted."
Truly, the much abused State Depart
ment, also, is cutting out work for the
second term.
